Filmed on 7-4-21 with the Canon VIXIA HF R700 & EOS M50
I finally got to fly on Frontier again for the first time in like 7-8 years, and it's changed since then. They have an awesome livery and each plane is uniquely different because each aircraft has a different animal on the tail. They have several new aircraft, but the seats are more to be desired. I've heard that theyr'e gonna upgrade the seats in the near future. I got to fly on my 2nd neo and they are very quiet inside. I like the older airbuses because they have the better sounding engines imo.

Filmed on 7-8-21 with the Canon VIXIA HF R700
I put the Midwest commercial because I used to fly them from DEN to MKE so many times as a child and the airport hasn't really changed since then, except the baggage claim. If Midwest does revive again one day it'll be the best day of my life! This elevator is located right in the middle of the ticketing counters and it's a basic modded Dover.

I forgot to check these out when I was in this area 3 days ago and I wanted to see what modded these Westys, but it turns out the mods are boring. Pretty much 90% of the elevators around here are modded.

Here's another basic impulse. I thought the building next to this also had an elevator but it didn't. Records say this one was installed in 2002, but I'm not too sure about that.

For some reason I thought this was a Thyssen Dover, but from other videos it looks like it's always been a TK. This thing is kinda small for this store and doesn't run the greatest. This is the only elevator in this store too.

Filmed on 7-14-21 with the Canon VIXIA HF R700
These were originally some pretty cool 1999 (Thyssen) Dovers with VR, but TK got their cooties on them a couple years ago, but they're still nice. They kept the original motors, but they're quieter than they used to be. Interesting that TK also kept the Dover buzzes on these.

I'm not surprised how creaky this thing runs, but it runs better than some others I've seen. It has a very nice cab and the rare exterior floor indicator which is like the only rare feature of HT.

SUPER

Filmed on 3-17-22 with the Samsung Galaxy S21
This thing is super super cool and is nothing like I've ever seen! There's only a small handful of round elevators in the US so they're ultra rare. This thing got recently updated and my grandpa's construction company actually did the work on this elevator! The elevator used to open to the outside on the street level, but they enclosed that since I was told that people were doing something (I specifically don't remember). The elevator got new panels of the same buttons too, which is kinda odd, but luckily they are some very nice fixtures. This thing also has a nice motor, but it's very quiet. My grandma decided to tag along with me for the ride. We were over here the day before, but the museum was closed, so we went back today to check it out.

This is easily the worst elevator in the whole mall. It shakes while leveling going down, the indicator is messed up, and the COP is loose. This really shows that HydroFits do not hold up well over time.
